Description
Youtube, IPtv, mobile broadband, iPhones, Home Entertainment systems, Lost and Heroes online. Where is entertainment headed?
Topher White led justification and implementation (of the infrastructure portion) of the first advertiser supported network television episodes put online: “Lost”. Topher will open the retreat with the future trends that drive the entertainment industry. The conferees will then informally hash out the implications in small discussions.
Conferees are asked to skim over “The Long Tail” or “Blue Ocean Strategy“. After a brief executive presentation on the books, we’ll also begin hashing this out. The concepts will thread through our next few thinking retreats.
The retreat site is a new 2-story, 6-bedroom house. The accommodations and setting are luxurious; it’s conducive to vigorous discussions or quiet meditation.
